In any event, spelling??? please.  Who wants a U in Color anyway?

Don't mess with a Glaswegian and never go out drinking with one.
 
Yes no kidding. Not to be made mad. And their allegiance to the Rangers or Celtic can only be called obsessive.  They make shrines.  Odd.

It makes it more colourful. All the US-based designers here on RP are jealous of those of us in the English-speaking world outside the States. Go ahead — ask anyone!

seriously, we americans have to inform the world.  poor things, none of them know anything. 

 

Yes and if we can convince them of the truths of turnips, rutabagas, and other vegetables, then it is not long before they see the truths of other things like american foriegn policy and the american style of diplomacy.

It seems the brittish have no real sense about these things. {#No}

no, don't "google" it, for that would be impossible since it is not a verb.  Look it up on google.

But if you don't have a garden, then squirrels that eat vegetables out of a garden are just kind of funny actually.  and maybe that is annoying, but the irony of "one person's pissed offeness is another person's chuckle" is worth a laugh at least.
